## Problem
API node generation status text (sent via `progress_text` WebSocket
binary messages) was not showing on local ComfyUI, but worked on cloud.
## Root Cause
The binary decoder for `progress_text` messages (eventType 3) checked
`getClientFeatureFlags()?.supports_progress_text_metadata` — the
**client's own flags** — to decide whether to parse the new format with
`prompt_id`. Since the client always advertises
`supports_progress_text_metadata: true`, it always tried to parse the
new wire format:
```
[4B event_type][4B prompt_id_len][prompt_id][4B node_id_len][node_id][text]
```
But the backend PR that adds `prompt_id` to the binary message
([ComfyUI#12540](https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI/pull/12540)) was
**closed without merging**, so local ComfyUI still sends the legacy
format:
```
[4B event_type][4B node_id_len][node_id][text]
```
The decoder misinterpreted the `node_id_len` as `prompt_id_len`,
consuming the actual node_id bytes as a prompt_id, then producing
garbled `nodeId` and `text` — silently dropping all progress text
updates via the catch handler.
Cloud worked because the cloud backend supports and echoes the feature
flag.
## Fix
One-line change: check `serverFeatureFlags.value` (what the server
echoed back) instead of `getClientFeatureFlags()` (what the client
advertises).
## Tests
Added 3 tests covering:
- Legacy format parsing when server doesn't support the flag
- New format parsing when server does support the flag
- Corruption regression test: client advertises support but server
doesn't

## Summary
This PR removes unsafe type assertions ("as unknown as Type") from test
files and improves type safety across the codebase.
### Key Changes
#### Type Safety Improvements
- Removed all instances of "as unknown as" patterns from test files
- Used proper factory functions from litegraphTestUtils instead of
custom mocks
- Made incomplete mocks explicit using Partial<T> types
- Fixed DialogStore mocking with proper interface exports
- Improved type safety with satisfies operator where applicable
#### App Parameter Removal
- **Removed the unused `app` parameter from all ComfyExtension interface
methods**
- The app parameter was always undefined at runtime as it was never
passed from invokeExtensions
- Affected methods: init, setup, addCustomNodeDefs,
beforeRegisterNodeDef, beforeRegisterVueAppNodeDefs,
registerCustomNodes, loadedGraphNode, nodeCreated, beforeConfigureGraph,
afterConfigureGraph
##### Breaking Change Analysis
Verified via Sourcegraph that this is NOT a breaking change:
- Searched all 10 affected methods across GitHub repositories
- Only one external repository
([drawthingsai/draw-things-comfyui](https://github.com/drawthingsai/draw-things-comfyui))
declares the app parameter in their extension methods
- That repository never actually uses the app parameter (just declares
it in the function signature)
- All other repositories already omit the app parameter
- Search queries used:
- [init method
search](https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+repo:%5Egithub%5C.com/.*+lang:typescript+%22init%28app%22+-repo:Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend&patternType=standard)
- [setup method
search](https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+repo:%5Egithub%5C.com/.*+lang:typescript+%22setup%28app%22+-repo:Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend&patternType=standard)
- Similar searches for all 10 methods confirmed no usage
### Files Changed
Test files:
-
src/components/settings/widgets/__tests__/WidgetInputNumberInput.test.ts
- src/services/keybindingService.escape.test.ts
- src/services/keybindingService.forwarding.test.ts
- src/utils/__tests__/newUserService.test.ts →
src/utils/__tests__/useNewUserService.test.ts
- src/services/jobOutputCache.test.ts
-
src/renderer/extensions/vueNodes/widgets/composables/useRemoteWidget.test.ts
-
src/renderer/extensions/vueNodes/widgets/composables/useIntWidget.test.ts
-
src/renderer/extensions/vueNodes/widgets/composables/useFloatWidget.test.ts
Source files:
- src/types/comfy.ts - Removed app parameter from ComfyExtension
interface
- src/services/extensionService.ts - Improved type safety with
FunctionPropertyNames helper
- src/scripts/metadata/isobmff.ts - Fixed extractJson return type per
review
- src/extensions/core/*.ts - Updated extension implementations
- src/scripts/app.ts - Updated app initialization
### Testing
- All existing tests pass
- Type checking passes
- ESLint/oxlint checks pass
- No breaking changes for external repositories

## Summary
Migrates all unit tests from `tests-ui/` to colocate with their source
files in `src/`, improving discoverability and maintainability.
## Changes
- **What**: Relocated all unit tests to be adjacent to the code they
test, following the `<source>.test.ts` naming convention
- **Config**: Updated `vitest.config.ts` to remove `tests-ui` include
pattern and `@tests-ui` alias
- **Docs**: Moved testing documentation to `docs/testing/` with updated
paths and patterns
## Review Focus
- Migration patterns documented in
`temp/plans/migrate-tests-ui-to-src.md`
- Tests use `@/` path aliases instead of relative imports
- Shared fixtures placed in `__fixtures__/` directories
